How to prevent Hyperlink virus warning dialog

[Mark$1]

Is is possible to stop or prevent a hyperlinked ascii file from the virus warning dialog box from popping up? What is wierd is in the Excel VBA file I have created, on my own computer, I can click on the hyperlink and it fuctions with out the warning, but if I go to a different computer and run the same Excel VBA file I get that stupid warning. If I click "ok" the file will then appear in "Word", but if I click "cancel" then I get debug error in my VBA code.

You could try putting your code between the display alerts!
[VBA]
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
'YOUR CODE HERE
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
[/VBA]

No, that did not work. Still have the same results.

There has been a weird change. I can now click on the hyperlink in the Excel range and it will bust off Word and show the ascii document, but when it runs through the VBA, I get prompted with dialog box " some files contain viruses, bla,bla, would you like to open this file". Any other clues would help.

Well to disable those messages you need to hack around in your registry but i wouldnt recommend it, that said here is MS supports view on how to do it Disable Hyperlink Warning

That makes sense. I guess I will have to write a VB stand alone and use the Excel SS as a reference. Thanks for finding that info.
